Chapter 43
Gu Mu, a weak woman, made Gu Xi very worried when she was alone outside, and now she has discovered the ferocity of the disease, and it is impossible to let her wander outside, so it is impossible for Gu Xi to stay here, just want to go from the entrance of the village. It's impossible, she must think long-term!

On the way back, I ran into Xiao Zhuzi with the same bad face by accident. He obviously heard the news and came out to inquire and found out that the entrance to the village was closed!
I was swearing bitterly, this is over, the young master is here and only I know, if I wait until after the inspection, I don’t know it will be a year of the monkey, I just hope the young master finds out quickly, I don’t want to stay here for one night, it’s too scary...

Just looking up and seeing Gu Xi with a calm face, Xiao Zhuzi asked in a daze, "Aren't you afraid?"

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at him looking like he was dying of fear, knowing that he was not pretending, so he didn't answer his question, but kindly reminded, "It's not safe here, you should tell your young master to get out as soon as possible!"

"But the entrance to the village is sealed..."

"This is a rural area, there must be other exits, what you should worry about is how to move your young master!" Hearing Xiao Zhuzi's worry, Gu Xi looked at old man Tao's house meaningfully!
Sure enough, hearing what Gu Xi said, thinking of his young master's insistence, Xiao Zhuzi suddenly became depressed, and the young master would definitely not listen to him to leave!
Suddenly thought of something, he looked at Gu Xi's thin arms and legs, and said in an incredulous tone, "You...you don't mean to leave, do you?"

Gu Xi nodded noncommittally. Of course she wanted to leave, and she had already decided to take the path she had just been on. Although the location was a bit off, she remembered that there was a wide road across the river. Go around the place and get out of here no problem!

Hearing what Gu Xi said, Xiao Zhuzi gritted his teeth as if he had decided on something, and told Gu Xi to wait for him, and then ran towards Old Man Tao like the wind, and Gu Xi saw that it was the place where he was going to go later, so he followed up!

Not long after Xiao Zhuzi returned the same way, Gu Xi raised his eyebrows to look at him, seeing his dejected look, he knew that his proposal must have been rejected, and Master Xie was unwilling to leave!
I was worried that the two of them would be with him, and it would be a burden to bring two more people. They would be happy not to go to Guxi, but before leaving, they kindly reminded, "Trust me, try to take it with you in the house and don't come out. If possible, use Cover your mouth and nose with a cloth!"

Of course, it is impossible for Gu Xi to directly mention the disease in the air, otherwise his cowardly personality would probably make everyone know it immediately. Seeing the other party nodding his head half-understanding, Gu Xi went straight away. Benevolence is exhausted!
There is indeed a road on the opposite side of the river. Gu Xi walked a hundred meters forward and chose a place that was not too wide to jump over. She thought it would be very dangerous, but she only used light force and flew directly to two meters away from the river. On the mound outside, he stroked his chest in shock, and looked back at the panting river in a cold sweat.

I didn’t think too much about jumping just now, but now I’m afraid that if I accidentally fall in, it’s a trivial matter to be washed away. In case of some kind of disease, how can I find my family to take care of my family! ?
After a while, Gu Xi adjusted her mood and walked to the main road. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the scene before her became familiar. This road was actually a side road to Taogu Village. Eye!

Because Tao Gu Village did not find Gu Mu, Gu Xi had to enlarge the scope of the search, and then carefully recalled the information given by those people, but found a loophole that she hadn't noticed all along!
Those people said that the person who took away Gu Mu was with a group of refugees, but if they really lived in Taogu Village, and the heavy rain did not cause floods last time, why did they end up with refugees?This can only explain one problem, that is, although that person is from Taogu Village, he has already left Taogu Village!
Gu Xi regretted that she left impulsively, otherwise she could ask the people in the village!

But soon Guxi gave up the idea of ​​going back, let alone whether someone who came out of Taogu Village knew about it, even if she knew, she still had to look for it again, why not take advantage of the daylight and find some people to look for it near Anyue Town try to find!
Gu Xi went back to the town to find the people who had questioned earlier, and gave each of them ten cents to go out to find Gu Mu, and said that whoever can find it will be rewarded!
She understands these people's thoughts too well, so she can do whatever she wants as long as she can feed them. As expected, when Gu Xi's words were released, several people came up and asked to search together, and Gu Xi agreed one by one. It is said that money is not as important as a single hair of Gumu!
A group of people rushed away, as if half of the street was quite empty, Gu Xi made an appointment with them to gather here after dark, but at this moment, his own strength was weak when he went out, so he didn't follow!
"Little girl, why is it you again!"

The yamen is Xiao Wu's servant today, and when he heard that there was someone outside, he came out to check, but he saw that it was the little girl who played the drums in the morning, and he was curious, didn't she go to Taogu Village to find her mother?Why did you come back, obviously the adults ordered the village to be closed not long after you came back?

"I want to see you adults!"

Gu Xi was also very speechless, and she never thought that she would come to this place twice in half a day, after all, it was equivalent to the law enforcement department in her previous life, every time she came, she felt a strange feeling, if it wasn't for something serious, she really didn't want to come!

"Then you wait first, Mr. Xu just went out! Otherwise, you go in and wait..."

not there?

Who knows when the person will come back, Gu Xi is naturally not willing to wait, looking up at the handsome yamen servant in front of him, hesitating for a moment, then calling him to the side of the gate, "Please help me send a message to Master Xu!"

"Okay, tell me!" Xiao Wu agreed, and Gu Xi saw that his eyes were clear and he should be a person who would keep secrets, so he whispered about the three unrecognizable people he saw in Taogu Village today. He said it, and at the same time mentioned a few words about the river.

Gu Xi didn't dare to say too clearly, these officials must be more simple-minded than ordinary people. If she was asked in detail how she saw it, she would be speechless, so she could only raise a little bit. I believe that as long as someone is sent to See, they can discover it themselves!
After Gu Xi finished speaking, Xiao Wu's expression became astonished. I don't know if it was Gu Xi who described the disease patient too horribly, or he thought of something terrible himself, until Gu Xi left him, he still hadn't recovered!
It wasn't until his companion saw his strange expression that he came over and patted him on the shoulder, that he woke up like a dream, and he wanted to talk about it right away!

The road that Guxi left the county government office was only one street away from Xianghetang. Originally, she planned to go back first, because she was afraid that Lu Xiang would say something about showing her mouth, and Father Gu was worried, but when she passed by a stall, she listened. Some people are talking about potions.

Gu Xi is usually very sensitive about things related to her, so she deliberately leaned closer to listen, anyway, even if she stays as a child, no one will be suspicious!And this time, she really heard something that made her feel funny!

A few days ago, Xiang Hetang did a secret laparotomy to accuse her of plagiarizing Xiang Hetang's stuff, but now that the epidemic just came out, she hastily pushed out the elixir. Mr. Xu from the county government!
No wonder she went to the yamen servant just now to say that he was not there. It turned out that Mr. Xu knew Xiang Hetang?
Gu Xi stood at the same place and listened again, and learned that Xiang Hetang was doing free medical treatment. It seemed to be to celebrate the first release of the elixir. Gu Xi felt that she had to go and see it when she heard the news!
As soon as she arrived at the gate of Xianghetang, Gu Xi was startled by the crowded scene in front of her. Xianghetang still had some reputation in Anyue Town, but now when she said that there was free medical treatment, people from several streets came here. She looked left and right Finally found a gap, and went forward, there was a wooden table, on which a rectangular piece of paper was pasted, with the names of several pills written on it, presumably it was the medicine introduced by Xiang Hetang!
"Removing heat pill, clearing fire pill, clearing stomach pill..."

When seeing these three out of the five product names, Gu Xi could only express her thoughts with a sneer. Did they steal her without even bothering to get the name?Moreover, she even used her newly launched elixir, which is really no small feat!
Forcing people to such an extent, I'm afraid that ordinary people can't do it, Gu Xi looked at the names on the paper that were similar with minor differences, and lightly slid his finger...

"You can't touch that piece of paper. If you want to buy medicine, please come inside!" Gu Xi's actions happened to be seen by a drug seller boy, who thought she was here to buy medicine, and invited her inside.

Gu Xi raised her eyebrows and walked along the path where the medicine boy was standing, she wanted to see what the pill was like!
The central lobby of Xianghetang was as crowded with people as the outside, but they still stood in an orderly line near the place where the doctor was sitting inside. At this moment, they were expecting, anxiously waiting for their turn!

The same counter was also crowded with people, but the drug boy took special care of Gu Xi, and even opened the back door for her to lead her to the side of the counter alone. Although there were many people there, at least she could see the situation behind the counter!
"Can I see the medicine before buying it?"

The people next to him were almost all the doctor who said what to buy, so they blindly paid for it. It seemed that they didn't even open the medicine bottle, and they held it in their arms like a treasure and walked away happily. Dan's unit price was five times higher than what she sold, so she asked to see the medicine first!

"Dust is the most taboo thing about pills. It will affect the effect if it gets dusty. And what can you tell, little girl? The medicines are all the same black. If they are mixed together, even us doctors can't tell the difference." Clear!"

It was the first time I met Gu Xi who made such a request, and the other party was not willing to open the bottle for her to see, not because he didn't dare, but judging from the doctor's expression, he was probably too lazy to do so, so he would rather spend more time talking!

Gu Xi pretended to be persuaded, hesitated and took out the money, but what he bought was Qinghuo Pill, which was a hundred coins more expensive than the heat-dispelling bill. The other party handed it over, and Gu Xi took it directly. good!

There is also a separate private room in Xianghetang, which should be specially prepared for those big families, so that they can avoid the chaos outside. After all, big families are not short of money. If the service is good, the price will be doubled possible!
When Gu Xi was leaving, he happened to see a richly dressed woman walking out of the room. When she saw a room full of people, the woman covered her nose with a handkerchief as if disgusted, as if she would inhale something dirty just by looking at it.

The doctor Xiang Hetang is also a colorist. Seeing her like this, he immediately stepped forward to block the people around him like a dog, "Mrs. Li, why don't you go to the back and have a cup of tea first. If there are so many people, your expensive clothes will be rubbed off." If it's dirty, we're all to die for!

Mrs. Li snorted coldly, but from the face of it, this sentence made her feel good. She pretended to be high-end and caressed the good cloth on her body, and nodded reluctantly. Afterwards, the doctor invited a little boy to accompany Mrs. Li to another room , I want to come here, the rooms are very clearly distributed!

Gu Xi moved her eyes away from the exquisite box in the hand of the maid behind the lady, and understood that Xiang Hetang must have boasted about something in the packaging. She was sure that the medicine bought by the lady was definitely much more expensive than the ones outside. !

These things are out of her control. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. I am afraid that even if the lady knows, she will not have any opinions. After all, those who have a little money always like to make something different by themselves, as if paying more for their own medicine. It's not the same!
Gu Xi endured the smell and squeezed out from the crowd, and finally sniffed his body. He went to too many places today and had close contact with disease patients. He must change his clothes before going back. The family is full of old people and sick people. Damn, it would be bad if I brought my sickness back home!
Xiang Hetang spent a lot of money this time, even the bottle containing the medicine was unusually delicate, Gu Xi opened the cork, poured out the only pill inside, lifted the pill to the sun, carefully She looked carefully, but this look made her gradually narrow her eyes.
